Rotary Club Chinchwad Report on Visit to Ishwarpuram NGO Date: 03.07.2024 Introduction: Following our participation in the Wari pilgrimage, members of Rotary Club Chinchwad visited Ishwarpuram, an NGO dedicated to education and community development for students from North East India. This visit provided us with invaluable insights into the challenges faced by these students and the impactful work being carried out by the NGO. Visit Details: Accompanied by Mr. Prashant Joshi, a trustee of Ishwarpuram, we were warmly welcomed and given a comprehensive overview of the NGO's activities. Mr. Joshi shared insights into the selection process of students from Nagaland and Arunachal Pradesh, highlighting the difficulties in convincing parents to send their children to study at Ishwarpuram. Once enrolled, the NGO faces ongoing challenges in ensuring the students' comfort, including providing for their daily needs such as food, clothing, and accommodation, as well as covering educational expenses.
